    No announcement or confirmation of it, yet it was probably the single coolest air unit the Terrans had. How could they NOT include the wraith?! And that banshee had best not be the replacement, nor should the viking.

    They're scrapping Wraiths I think. There's the cloakable Banshee now which will make up for the Wraith's crappy ground attack and the Viking in ship form will take the role of air AA.

    The banshee is a knock off of the Orca Bomber / Fighter series from C&C. I want my Wraith. That thing was sleek, sexy and original. And theres no reason they couldn't make the wraith a little better against ground forces. Maybe have it shoot stronger lasers or even shoot it's missiles at ground forces like it did in Beta SC.

    currently terran has only 4 air units, battlecruiser, dropship, and banshee, and viking fighter. (3 attacking air units)
    protoss have temepest, phoenix, star relic, wapr rays, phase prism, and observer. (4 attacking air units)

    so like terran has yet to reveal one more new airships. maybe it would be the new wraith or the new vessel.

    Phase Prism doesn't count as air units now?

    Aw. I thought I was going to feel powerful for a second.
    You stole that. You stole that right from my heart and soul, leaving me just a shattered and broken shell.

    ...No I'm not 'emo'.

    Major Willy, I just realized, the Vulture portrait is based off a Blizzard artist known as Samwise. Lol.

    Anyways, though. The wraith is seen in some of the backgrounds available so I'd like to think they're atleast considering it. But I expect to see it in the final copy or i'll be pissed.

    I hope there's another Terran air unit, there's a unit in the cinematic trailer that doesn't look like the Viking or Banshee... atleast to me it don't.

    that looked like a scout to me, but that doesnt make sense since the scouts are scrapped.

    Neh....I personally won't miss the Wraith. Most likely they'll reveal another ship though, most likely a fighter.

    I like having one air unit for ground and one for air (I'm assuming vikings are good at air-to-air). Instead of just having an all purpose fighter like the wraith who really was only mediocre at both. Though they are iconic I guess for the terrans.

    Meh, I thought it looked bulky to be a scout, and also it seemed like a Terran world so...
